Pipeline from SEO

The challenge
Strong product, stalled organic. Thin programmatic pages, no internal-link architecture, zero AI Overview presence, and an analytics setup that couldn't tie SEO to revenue.
Strategy
- Reframed SEO around four bottom-of-funnel buyer journeys, not head-term volume
- Built a commercial-intent topical map with predicted AI Overview coverage
- Re-architected comparison, alternatives and integrations page templates
- Layered a digital-PR program around proprietary product data
Execution
- Technical SEO sweep across Core Web Vitals, render-blocking JS, schema
- 180 new commercial-intent pages over two quarters with unique research
- AI Overview optimization with entity-grade content and citation density
- GA4 + HubSpot revenue attribution stitched together for true ROI reporting
